Iconic landmark in Hastings, visible from our back bedroom window and our little garden. This pier was first opened in 1872. The pier became derelict and was closed in 2008 and was almost totally destroyed by fire in 2010. It was completely modernised and rebuilt with the help of funding from the National Lottery and re-opened in 2016. In 2017 it was awarded the Stirling Prize, the highest award presented by the Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA).
